Prepare for an old fashioned good time like our Loyalist ancestors would have enjoyed. The Menu will be home-made and as close as possible to the foods of the era. The Buffet Lunch will be Chicken Soup with root vegetables; Ploughman’s Platter; Sandwiches (lobster, egg, chicken, salmon); Mincemeat Tartlets, Trifle, Christmas Cookies, Old Fashioned Candy (fudge, colonial toffee, truffles and rock candy); Hot Mulled Cider, Eggnog, Tea & Coffee.

After lunch, we’re in for an inspirational Christmas Story Presentation beginning with “An Introduction to the Loyalist Christmas” and continuing with scriptures of the season & traditional carols.

The Price of Admission? Donations from you and your guests for the Old-Time General Store ! We’d like everyone’s BEST, prize-worthy home-made pickles, preserves, jams, sauces, biscuits, breads, cakes, pies, cookies, tarts… hand knit or sewn treasures; handmade Xmas ornaments and decorations; quilted or smocked items; wooden toys, cloth dolls, jewellery, etc. The proceeds from the sale of these items will go toward the cost of the meal, decorations, prizes and songbooks.

And speaking of songbooks - what’s a Christmas Party without a Sing-Along?  We’ll continue in the festive spirit of Loyalist gatherings with some of the best-known
& loved Christmas songs.
